About this study

Official title: An Exploratory,Observational, Non-interventional, Open Label, Remote Pilot Study to Assess Adherence in Study Subjects With COPD

The purpose of this study is to monitor adherence to a clothing-attached breathing monitor, respiratory patterns, and activity levels in COPD patients, and correlate those respiratory patterns and activity levels with patient-reported symptoms and events. To achieve this purpose, Spire will collect data from a wearable monitor that participants attach to the participant's clothing, an associated smartphone application, and completion of weekly questions. The wearable monitor and the consumer smartphone application to be used are consumer products and currently available in the market.

This study does not include clinical intervention and no doctors will be involved in this study.

No clinical tests or office visits are included in this study. All data will be collected through an online survey tool and remotely through the wearable sensors.

Read the detailed description

This is an exploratory, observational, non interventional, single-arm, open label, remote pilot study involving up to 150 self-reported COPD participants. Eligible participants will wear the Spire biophysiological health monitors for a period of 9 months while the participants report symptoms on a weekly basis via brief surveys. If and when participants incur a COPD-related exacerbation which results in a medication change after hospitalization or contact with a healthcare provider, participants will report this on the weekly surveys. When this survey is read by a study nurse, the nurse will follow up with the participant by phone to conduct a post-exacerbation phone screening. This data would provide context to inform how to correlate the biosensor-sensed physiological parameters with the exacerbation self-reported data. All study participants will be remotely distributed throughout the United States.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Adherence to wearing a Spire wearable health monitorOther

    Participants will wear a Spire health monitor every day for 9 months and receive weekly emails with a short survey about the participant's condition and symptoms. If participants fail to respond to this email or Spire detects that a participant is not wearing the monitor, participants will be contacted by a nurse. While participants are wearing the monitor, Spire will make sure the sensors are collecting data but will not review the data in real time. If a participant's monitor stops sending data to Spire for more than 24 hours, the participant will be contacted. If the participant is unreachable for 10 days the participant's emergency contact will be contacted. If neither the participant nor the emergency contact is reachable over 24 days the participant will be removed from the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Spire wearable health monitor physiological data collection

    To evaluate the extent to which Spire wearable health monitor can capture viable data from COPD participants

    Measured: weekly email surveys and phone calls over a nine month period

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Participant adherence

    To evaluate the daily adherence to wearing the Spire wearable health monitor in COPD participants

    Measured: weekly email surveys and phone calls over a nine month period

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Moderate Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Spire, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jan 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Spire wearable health monitor physiological data collection (time frame: weekly email surveys and phone calls over a nine month period). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Jan 2021.
